At the Cave of the Winds, enjoy the gushing cool wind that squeezes through the narrow cave chambers and marvel at the artless beauty of the cave formations.

Day 3 BASE CAMP 5 / MULU PINNACLES / BASE CAMP 5 After an early breakfast, commence your hiking at 6AM. The trail is 2.4 km in length but rises some 1,200 meters from Camp 5 to the viewpoint, passing through lowland dipterocarp forest before climbing steeply through moss forest. The trees are a lot smaller and much of the vegetation is covered in slippery green moss. Limestone debris also litters the trail so trekkers must proceed with care. The last section of the trails is nearly vertical, with rope section and 15 aluminums ladders strategically positioned to help with the climb up the rocks. The vegetation is sparse amidst the limestone rocks. The climb to the summit will take an average of 4-5 hours. Upon reaching to the summit, enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the majestic Mulu Pinnacles as you eat your packed lunch. Due to the steep compact trail, it normally takes a longer time to descend, with an average of 5-6 hours. Upon arrival back at camp, you can relax and go for a swim in the Melinau River beside Camp 5. After dinner, rest for the night. Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner Base Camp 5
